One of the major problems in estimating GDP is the absence of reliable, accurate, timely and consistent official economic and sosial statistics. One of them is that official statistics do not take into account the underground economy when estimating GDP. Deficiencies in estimation techniques and difficulties associated with data collection lead to misreporting and underreporting of national account statistics.
